Much better options out there Holiday Mansion, Carl craft. The gibsons are good rebuilds, but not my favorite. Do you plan on tailoring her

they should name this particular boat the raindrop because it leaks. although a nice looking vessel be prepared to use a lot of resin to dry her in, I have done 4 of these boats they all leaked from the stainless steel trim, back to your question I wouldnt pay very much, you have a large investment ahead but finished the value could be very nice

Nothing. If you find one in that condition, the owner should give it to you just to get it off their hands.
It is going to cost you enough to transport it & have a bottom job.

being that your not loooking for a great shape gibson im pretty sure that you can pick one up for salvage pretty cheap, or they might pay you to haul it off. as a boat modeler those windows are pricey
I would try to find one with them in it. new are better because the old are not efficiant
